Your microscopy news digest is here!

Posted by , on 28 May 2021

Twitter, microscopy forums, and bioimage analysis platforms such as image.sc, … It is difficult to keep up to date with all the discussions and news happening on the different online platforms. To address this, we have created a ‘news digest’ post to help you stay informed about what’s happening in the microscopy community.

Here is a selection of interesting news, publications and discussions that happened in the past few weeks. And a big thank you to our ‘FocalPlane reporters’: Alvaro Crevenna, Andrey Andreev, Jennifer Waters, Manish Kumar, Martin Jones, Pablo J. Sáez, and Robert Haase, who helped us create this list.

  • Christian Tischer’s paper about BigDataProcessor was published a few weeks ago.
